Chapter 1 (2/2)

”The sword strong enough to protect the Empire must be the only one.”

The blood on the sword was really hot.

She was the sword. She saw what the faces looked like when people died.

She felt death very closely. The Emperor killed so many people. Thus, she had to partic.i.p.ate in all these murders.

I did not kill anyone.

I had to live in the blood. If I resist the Emperor, my family would be hurt the next day. First, my older brother was tortured and killed. And then, my dad was killed. Whenever the Emperor hara.s.sed the family of the Duke, he used Keira.

She had a bad relations.h.i.+p with her family but the family meant  something to her in a sense. This was not what she wanted at all.

The Emperor left Keira to his son. The new Emperor left to his son. This continued to Dietrich II, Dietrich III, and Dietrich IV.

Keira became the symbol for the Emperor's sword. Time pa.s.sed hundreds of years. It was impossible to count how many people were killed by Keira. Probably, almost a million people.

'…It was not me. I did not kill anyone.'

No one would blame the instrument, it would be the user instead.

But, this was about the instrument without the inner self. Keira was the sword that had the inner self.

I felt guilty and painful all the time.

But, Keira was not able to sleep, eat something, and die.

It's a real h.e.l.l.

'Why can't I stop thinking and have to be going crazy?'

It's awful. Keira only talked to the Emperor. The Emperor treated Keira as a human.

It's so lonely. n.o.body treated the sword kindly. She felt every emotion. Happy. Sad. Joyful. Angry. It's still kind of a human.

Does my pain bring the Emperors happiness?

Dietrich III conquered the mysterious things when they appeared.

Mirichonue ended the civil war.

Mirichonue III expanded the colony year by year.

Jiason V united the country for the first time.

All praises were given to only the Emperors.

Meanwhile, the families of the Duke had been hara.s.sed generation by generation. They had been killed cruelly, including their relatives.

For these, Keira was used. Dietrich I wrote his will like this: If you want to handle Keira, make use of the fact that Keira is related to the family of Ronan.

Almighty Ehirate.

The piece of Ehirate occurred to me that the wizards forced me to eat. I ate the piece of G.o.d. With this, there might be a way to put G.o.d in me.

I wanted to believe this.

I want to have my revenge.

If you exist, please give me an opportunity to punish those who used the power of G.o.d and made the creation as they wanted.

I am in so much pain. Meanwhile, the sons of the Emperor who caused me to become like this are very well.

They told me that I should be thankful because I am working for the glory of the Empire but I never wanted this. At least, this way is not what I wanted.

I was not a magical sword. I am so desperate. I was born as a human. I am a human. I am really a human.

I wanted to be human. That's all I wanted. I have prayed for a very long time.

Finally, G.o.d replied. I returned.

400 years. The miracle happened that I returned to the past over the cruel time.

”Hu. Ha.”

It was strange for me to breath in and out. It's been such a long time since I did this.

I was able to move my body according to my will. I was not a sword anymore.

Human's skin, blood, and bone. When I saw my feet, it was chubby.

This couldn't be a dream. I had never had any dreams since I became the sword.

”Ha, ah……”

She stood up but fell down. Charlize was crawling to the mirror.

It's a miracle.

She saw herself in the mirror. She was slow. She was small.

She had pink cheeks, white skin, navy eyes, and ash-blond hair.

She kept looking at the mirror. She couldn't believe she actually went back in time.

'I had lost everything before.'

My life. My body. My rights. My family. My honor. My relatives.

But finally….

I returned to the past.

”……I came back.”

She was surprised when she spoke out.

I can speak out. I can feel my lip moving. Finally, I became the real me.

”I have come back.”

As soon as she was able to think, Charles decided this.

'To make everyone lose all their pride,'

I will destroy this country.
